Book excerpt: Excerpt from Eighty-Seventh Annual Conference of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints: Held in the Tabernacle and Assembly Hall, Salt Lake City, Utah, April 6th, 7th and 8th, 1917, With a Full Report of the Discourses Charity, or love, is the greatest principle in existence. If we can lend a helping hand to the oppressed, if we can aid those who are despondent and in sorrow, if we can uplift and ameliorate the condition of mankind, it is our misssion to do it, it is an essential part of our religion to do it. And I say to our friends present that we have an organization in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter - day Saints that. Is perfect in its opera tion, by which we may call today to almost the whole Church, for aid, and tomorrow we will receive returns with the generous contributions that are freely given for a good cause, and it Will cost nobody a cent. Every dime contributed for the benefit of the poor goes to the poor, and 13 not consumed by charitable organizations, who collect and handle means in tended for the poor, and are paid for their services, thus absorbing a large percentage of the means contributed for the benefit of the poor, by those who are not poor. I wish to announce that to our friends. The Latter-day Saints know this, they understand it. They have recollection of recent events in which, within twenty-four hours or thereabouts, the people of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter - day Saints contributed somewhere near and it was sent to the afflicted people of the east that were suffering in consequence of war, and it was put into hands who would distribute it wisely to those who needed, without cost to any body; and a portion of that fund, which was not distributed, remains to be dealt out to those who are really in need as their circumstances require.
